Evergreens dappled with new-fallen snow, frozen lakes and ponds etched with the graceful patterns unintentionally left behind by ice skaters, snowmen winking knowingly at couples in love... winter in New England is a time for romance.

After a day of playing in the snow or strolling arm-in-arm through this winter wonderland, nothing is quite as romantic as retiring to your room at a charming and cozy inn or bed & breakfast and lighting a crackling, comforting fire in your own fireplace. Many of the region's B&Bs and inns have a few rooms with fireplaces, but when you want to be sure of winter warmth, reserve your room at one of these New England inns where you'll find a real working fireplace in each and every guest room.
